Chapter 378: Scroll of Destruction

"Very good. You performed very well in the battle to capture the fortress. There is no need to fight anymore." Field patted his shoulder. "Let the wounded rest and heal. The uninjured people organized themselves and were responsible for cleaning up the corpses in the fortress. and trash.”

"Yes, sir!" Heyman immediately performed the imperial military salute and went to arrange the second army.

"We have to observe further. The next battle will mainly depend on direct lineage."

Field shook his head and arranged for the Second Army to take on logistics and auxiliary work, not just because they were severely weakened and only had more than 400 people left. Loyalty is a big issue for the newly formed army. What's more, during the siege, the Chosen Ones and the Corpse Corps looked abnormal.

"We cannot repeat the mistakes of the Shadow World Sect."

Field knew that people were most likely to think blindly, and it was not only the border troops who were prone to blind thinking, but also himself, so he simply let them serve as logistics first.

The First Army and the Corrupted Legion, which have high morale, are loyal and reliable, are the trump cards.

"Ofili, is Argali City still valuable? Can it be corrupted?"

"You can, you can, but I have to mention that there is not much life energy left in Argali City. The night demons are killing like crazy and causing great damage to the local environment. However, there is still something to gain."

"That's fine, little fat dragon. Your next mission is to go to the north to select powerful carrion corpses, and then go to corrupt the argali leader. You can also carry weapons and equipment back on the way."

Drawing a straight line on the map, Field motioned to her.

"Yo? It's going quite smoothly. You must have planned it in advance, right?"

"Of course, I didn't let you corrupt Argali City before, just because I was afraid that the gray fog would make too much noise and attract enemies. But now that the smoke is rising, it doesn't matter anymore."

Offei used her big tail to nuzzle Field affectionately: "Well done, Lord Miscellaneous Fish."

"The rotting corpses will disrupt the rhythm of the Shadow World Sect and cause civil strife. But be careful on the way and don't get caught."

"Don't worry, I will use my magic skills to get on my way." Ofili turned around and left.

"Next, let's go see the resurrection circle."

Field was very interested in the so-called God of Destruction. In order to resurrect the illusory God of Destruction, he even dared to steal the treasure of the Goddess of Life.

"Sir, we cannot open the door to the underground of the fortress." A guard from the Night Territory came to report.

"I hope Baron Fierce Horse can play some role and bring him here."

Soon, Baron Fierce Horse was brought to Field.

"I really can't believe that you can actually regain the border fortress." Aniri said bluntly.

"That's not the point. Do you know how to open the underground door of the fortress? As far as I know, the border family generally knows how to open it."

"Of course I can do it, but... what do you want to do? If you want to steal the national treasure, I advise you to give up. The lifeline is not a prop. It has been implanted in the empire's soil long ago. It cannot be taken away, nor can it be destroyed.”

"Am I such a person? That's definitely not the case."

Field said this, but his regret was clearly revealed.

I originally wanted to take it away and pretend to be in Starry Night City.

Field explained: "The people of the Shadow World Sect have reached the location of the life lock with the help of Richard. They have also carved a magic circle. If you don't want to be blown up to the sky, open the door quickly."

"Okay..." Anneri frowned, constantly thinking about Field's purpose.

With a look of reluctance, he led everyone to the underground hall and opened the door to the underground.

"Boom~"

The huge circular floor was pushed to both sides, and the underground passage was revealed in front of everyone, extending down the spiral staircase.

Different from the subjective imagination of being cold and damp, the underground passage is full of life. The almost vertical walls are covered with golden holy flowers, and countless fireflies are flying around, making it as beautiful as stars.

"Such a strong breath of life." Rosaria's pupils were trembling, and she almost lost control of her steps and jumped down. Sweat broke out on her forehead, and she immediately took a few steps back. "It's like the sweet smell exuded by the flytrap, containing terror. murderous intent"

Field was indifferent, but felt very comfortable. Dou Qi even began to improve on its own, even though he had never practiced it before.

"Ashina and I will go. Rosalía, please wait for me outside."

Field has seen several scholars from the Shadow World Sect carving runes underground. Upon seeing Field, they began to pack up their belongings in panic, apparently not expecting Imperial troops to discover them.

"Damn the Shadow World Sect, I'm going to kill them all."

Anneri smiled ferociously and was about to jump down, but was grabbed by Field: "I have other arrangements. Mr. Anneri, your strong horse collar should also have an armory, right? There should be survivors, right?"

Aniri shook his head directly: "No, I don't know."

"Are you sure you don't have it? Tell me how to open it, we need more equipment." Field smiled slightly, "Soon, you will have the opportunity to cut off Richard's head with your own hands."

Glancing at the magic circle underground, Aniri was silent for a long time before gritting his teeth and asking: "Field, can you really resist the counterattack of the Shadow World Sect?"

"certainly!"

Field was actually not sure, but he didn't want to let down everyone's morale.

"Okay, I must have a knight duel with Richard." Annery gritted his teeth, revealed all the methods of opening the armory, and handed over the family token to let Field recruit the army of the fierce horse leader.

"Great, we can let the First Army recruit them and bring back the weapons."

After arranging everything, Field sent the others away and took only Ashina down the spiral staircase to the underground.

"Roar, roar, roar~"

Various rare and powerful monsters were locked in cages and roared at Field. They were not angry, Field could feel that they were afraid...

The huge blood magic circle was clenched on the ground. If you look closely, you can see that the magic circle is not drawn randomly. Every stroke is actually engraved with ant-sized spells.

Corpses were nailed to various corners of the magic circle, and thirteen broken artifacts were emitting the last light.

In the center of the magic circle, a heavy and mysterious cylindrical scroll floated quietly.

"Hello, young sir." The middle-aged man in priest clothes, with heavy bags under his eyes, walked slowly towards Field, "I know we are dead, but I hope you can give us a chance."

Field was very surprised. He thought of many possibilities, but he didn't expect that the people of the Shadow World Sect would negotiate with him calmly.

"Tell me what opportunity it is." Field raised his eyelids.

The priest raised his hands: "We hope to complete the sacrifice and restore the glory of the God of Destruction."

"Qimi told me about this. You have been busy with this? Is the Chosen God of Destruction the true God you are talking about?"
